Eric,

Nope, the one I have, has the "star" INSIDE the near spherical lens.
Richard could possibly confirm that, if he remembers seeing it here.

It was an internal component.

Then it is not a Hypergon:

The whole point of the external star on this lens was so that it could be swung into place part way through the exposure to compensate for light fall off away from the center. I'm not sure how an internal mechanical filter would work...
